Chapter 55: Marriage
"It can't be the eldest son of the Deng family, right?" Cui Zhiwei subconsciously thought of that person.
"You...... Are you deduced?" Cui Zhixing asked suspiciously.
"No," Cui Zhiwei shook his head, "I just think that the eldest prince of the Deng family is there and sick, and if there is anyone who can doubt it, it is him." ”
"Didn't you ask what kind of beast it was?"
Cui Zhiwei explained: "If the boss lady was bitten to death, no matter who it is, the first person to suspect should be the beast." But if it was a wild beast, shouldn't it be the wild beast that was killed? How could it be those people? Unless there is a possibility, that is, those people will be killed if they have discovered some secret. I had doubts about the eldest son of the Deng family before, and it wasn't until you just said that, eldest brother, that my guess was confirmed. ”
"The proprietress found so far was indeed bitten to death by the eldest son of the Deng family. ”
"Why? Why did he bite the proprietress to kill them?"
"It seems to say that he has been poisoned by wolf poison and must drink virgin blood to detoxify. It happened that the niece of the proprietress passed by that courtyard that day and was selected by the eldest son of the Deng family as the person to detoxify. The proprietress heard her call for help and took two guys to save people, but in the end, not only did they not save them, but the proprietress and the two guys were also bitten to death by the eldest son of the Deng family. And the eldest son of the Deng family fainted because he accidentally drank non-virgin blood, and he has not woken up yet. ”
"The rest of the people who were killed won't be killed because they saw this, right?"
"That's right. Cui Zhixing nodded, "It's because they heard the miserable screams and came out to see it, and they were killed by the people brought by the eldest prince of the Deng family." ”
"Since they killed so many people, why don't they do things more secretly, such as destroying corpses and destroying traces?"
"It's not that they don't want to do it, but they have disrupted their plans by Yan Jingnian and the guards you sent. ”
"Oh?" Cui Zhiwei raised his eyebrows, "Is this the reason why those two guards were killed?"
"That's right. They originally planned to set fire to the inn, but they didn't expect to hear someone shouting to take the water away just after lighting the fire. They realized that the two guards might have seen what was going on, and killed them as well. Later, because they heard that there were more and more people running out of the water, the people of the eldest son of the Deng family did not have time to destroy the corpses, so they thought of pushing this matter on you, so they found someone to put on the clothes of the two guards you sent to pretend to be them, and then let people see the two of them kill people and escape. ”
"I didn't expect so much to happen. After knowing the truth of the matter, she became even more self-blaming, if it weren't for her and Yan Jingnian wanting to get involved in this matter, the two guards wouldn't have to go to death in vain, and those who were destined to die, they couldn't save them. may also be because of this, she didn't suffer a backlash this time.
Finding that her mood had become depressed, Cui Zhixing raised his hand and rubbed her hair, "You are still young, you will inevitably think about things poorly, don't do it again in the future." ”
"Well, I listen to my eldest brother. "That's a matter of human life, and this lesson is too profound.
"Okay," seeing that she was in a depressed mood, Cui Zhixing soothed, "Your intentions are good, and you don't need to blame yourself too much." ”
"I know. "But I still feel bad about it.
Seeing that she was still depressed, Cui Zhixing hurriedly changed the topic, "Don't you want to know what this matter has to do with the haunting of Anping County?"
"Yes. Cui Zhiwei nodded.
"At present, the few people who died in Anping County were also bitten to death and drank their blood, so they died in a horrible state. It's just that the previous cases were better covered up, so people would mistakenly think that they were committed by evil ghosts. ”
"That is to say, those people were actually also committed by this eldest son of the Deng family?"
"This is not clear, but in order to close the case as soon as possible, even if it is not the work of this person, it is estimated that it will be pushed on him first. "Otherwise, the people in the county will be panicked, and it will be difficult to calm down for a while.
"Understood. Cui Zhiwei remembered another thing, "Is the eldest brother with the third son of the Deng family all the way?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just a little curiosity about him. By the way, why are the eldest sons and third sons of the Deng family coming here?"
It is said that the eldest son of the Deng family is looking for people from the Baili family to detoxify, and the third son of the Deng family himself said that it is to avoid the family's urging to marry. ”
"Detoxification?" I thought it would be to find the patriarch of the Baili family, because he had excellent medical skills. Either it is the four elders who are looking for the divine dragon to see the head but not the end, and that person is good at making poison. The one who can avoid the marriage urging is hiding from the family, but here he encounters a bunch of peach blossoms, is this marriage a hiding?
Not to mention, it really made people hide. Just because he didn't wait for the government to convict, the eldest son of the Deng family died violently.
There was a funeral at home, and the marriage of the third son of the Deng family was naturally postponed. People also took the initiative to give up the township test next year and have to wait for another three years. This wave has won it a good reputation again.
He avoided this marriage, but the marriage of the eldest ladies of Wu and Qi, who staged a farce of two daughters fighting for one husband, became extremely difficult.
Because Cui Zhixing showed his face in Xu Yang, some people on Anping's side also vaguely heard that the Qi family and Cui Jin's family had returned to their hometown, and Cui Jin's uncle took the family to Cangwen Town to find Qi and others to catch up, and mainly wanted to match the marriage between his daughter and Cui Zhixing.
Qi Shi was furious when he heard this, "The things that the eldest brother did to Yuanbao in the early years, as well as the things that you relied on the old body and the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to harm the township, the old body will not care about you." But you want your eldest grandson to marry your daughter who has a bad reputation, have you ever thought about the face of our family?"
"Little sister, I'm your eldest brother, if I didn't have it in the early years, Yuanbao wouldn't have grown up. ”
"Big brother, do you ignore what you say?" Qi stood up and pressed towards him step by step, "In those years, the old body gave you a lot of silver, so that Yuanbao could go to school and study, but what about you? You used all the money on your own son and let my family Yuanbao work in the field." Do you know how many people looked down on Yuan Bao when he first came to the capital, and how many people blamed him for his old body?"
"It's Yuanbao himself who is not angry, and Mr. said that he is not the material for reading, so I didn't let him study. Uncle Cui Jin argued.
"Which gentleman said that? Didn't you buy that man, that person would say that?" when she was such a deceitful person, was she?
"I, I didn't. ”
"You didn't?" Qi sneered, "Otherwise, let's find that person and confront him?"
"No, no, that gentleman is long gone. ”
